Not sure if anyone will find this interesting, but anyway....
The following is a list of feature films which were shown on BBC TV during June 1949. However, the list does not include the various short films which were shown (which included a few cartoons and some documentaries).
New Wine (1941) - Wednesday 1 June 1949, at 3:00PM
The Amateur Gentleman (1936) Wednesday 8 June 1949, at 3:00PM
Riders of the Sage (1939) - Friday 10 June 1949, at 3:00PM
Trouble Brewing (1939) - Saturday 11 June 1949, at 3:15PM
Looking on the Bright Side (1932) Monday 13 June 1949, at 8:45PM
Cinderella Swings It (1943) - Monday 20 June 1949, at 3:00PM
Java Head (1934) - Wednesday 22 June 1949, at 3:00PM
Tom Brown's School Days (1940) - Monday 27 June 1949, at 8:45PM
Some of these films are very obscure. For example, Cinderella Swings It only has 11 ratings on IMDb, while New Wine only has 14 ratings. I found a similar result when looking up films shown on Australian TV of the late-1950s, where many of the films had fallen into equal obscurity. I think it provides an example of how a lot of old films are generally not available for viewing.
Is any of this interesting?
